heights of Lima, in the southern hemisphere ; of 

 Sierra Leone ; and of the southern table-land of 

 India. The following tables furnish the horary 

 variations of the shore of Cumana, La Guayra, 

 Peru, the coast of Africa, and the Isle Taiti ; 

 those of Mysore (400 t.) ; of the valley of Ca- 

 raccas (480 t.) ; of Ibague, in New Grena- 

 da, at the foot of the Andes of Quindiu (703 1.); 

 of Popayan (911 t.) ; of Mexico (1168 t.) ; and 

 of Quito (1492 t.). All these observations are 

 unpublished, with the exception of those of 

 Captain Sabine, which I borrowed from the 

 excellent Meteorology of M. Daniell (His. Es- 

 says, 1823, p. 254).
